"Do we have to talk about this guy?"
That's how Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush responded as a supporter began asking him about businessman Donald Trump.
But a few moments later, Bush unloaded.
"I was going to talk to you in the Mexican language," the man said as he started asking his question.
Bush and the crowd laughed at his reference to Trump, who has hectored Bush for "speaking Mexican" at least once.
The man wanted to know whether Bush would critique Trump's border security plan, which includes calls to build a tall wall and pay for it by seizing remittance payments from undocumented Mexican immigrants.
"It is not feasible to build a wall as the sole solution," he said. "It's a simple thing to say and I'm sure it's great for our friends in the press to just simplify the thing down to that. But its not practical and its not conservative. Its not conservative."
But a man seated behind Bush didn't like the answer and began shouting about China. Trump has said that the United States can build a border wall because China built its Great Wall.
Bush snapped: "Oh yeah, 600 years ago. I'm telling you what they say on the border, not in Pensacola, because we don't have a border problem here. I'm talking about the people on the ground."
The man persisted, asking Bush to explain his plan.
"I'm going to give it to you right now man, you ready?" Bush said. "You listening?"

More than 400 locals attended a far cry from the tens of thousands who saw Trump last week in Mobile, Ala., about an hour away.

Poor widdle Jebuardo, can’t pay his staff, barely holding 10 percent in the polls while Trump is breaking through the 40 percent barrier, as The Donald would say:
“WHAT A PATHETIC LOSER!”
GFY Senor’ BOOOOOOOSH!

¿Yeb? will ‘grow’ and declare as a Democrat in the next few years, ala Charlie Crist, after he gets hammered flat in this primary.

**** MEGA BUMP !!! ***
You are SO absolutely right! If Jebuardo couldn't stand up to a third rate probate judge like George W. Greer back in 2005, and let an innocent woman die by extrajudicial fiat, an excruciating death of dehydration and starvation, how in Hell would Yeb stand up to the likes of Vladimir Putin, Kim Jong Un, the mad mullahs of Iran, and ISIS?!?
Jebuardo isn't packing the equipment for that, but TRUMP IS!

Yeb, every time your speak Mexican, you p*ss off the base. The guys who will not vote for you might like it, but it's going to be a big problem if you persist.
You're an idiot and your mother was right.

He should be asked as he was yesterday how are you going to pay for it? The man should have said if a small country like Hungary can fund the building of a wall to protect it's citizens a global power like America should surely be able to do the same, and your unwillingness to take concrete physical actions to protect Americans makes you unsuitable to lead the nation.

What they speak in Mexico isn’t exactly what’s spoken in Spain.
To: Tennessee Nana
I was thinking exactly the same thing. Neither Bush brother has ever been held accountable for the terrible death of Terri Schiavo. It is my sincere hope that neither Jeb nor George Bush will ever hold public office again.

I'm going to give it to you right now man, you ready?" Bush said. "You listening?"
Under his plan, Bush would deploy U.S. Border Patrol closer to the border, use drones and GPS tracking to identify potential illegal entry points, and punish cities that refuse to arrest undocumented immigrants sought by federal agencies.
You ready... for nothing new?
